White House says it will give press access to border facilities
By John Bowden - 03/28/21 09:44 AM EDT

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Sunday that reporters would gain access in the near future to Border Patrol facilities being used to house unaccompanied minors who migrated to the U.S.

During an interview on "Fox News Sunday," Psaki faced questions from host Chris Wallace over the continued lack of access by the media at facilities where by law children and teens are required to be held 72 hours. In recent weeks, some have been held for as long as 10 days.

Psaki said that the Biden administration was "absolutely committed" to allowing reporters and cameras in those facilities.

"We want to provide access into the Border Patrol facilities," Psaki said. "We are mindful that we are in the middle of the pandemic, we want to keep the kids safe, we want to keep the staff safe."

"We are committed to allowing cameras into Border Patrol facilities," she added, after Wallace accused the White House of being "less transparent than the Trump administration" in terms of media access at Border Patrol facilities.

The WH did not say it will give press access to border facilities.  This announcement would come with a date and location.

The WH said it was "committed" to doing so.  Big effing difference.

Yup!  You nailed it!  All of us who remember the BJ Clinton presidency are thoroughly familiar with language parsing.  I've learned to peel the layers of the onion every time a Rat makes a public utterance.
